Nītiśataka 86

सृजति तावदशेषगुणाकरं पुरुषरत्नमलङ्करणं भुवः |
तदपि तत्क्षणभङ्गि करोति चेद् अहह कष्टम् अपण्डितता विधेः ||

Drutavilambita (।।।ऽ।।ऽ।।ऽ।ऽ)

first he creates a jewel of a man,
a fine, fine human being
to grace the earth;
and then?
he just nips that life
in an instant--
jeez,
what an idiot god is.
